New Halcyon Rebreather?

[evandroairton]

Anyone mention the price?

Talked to one of these friends today and there's no consumer price yet (didn't ask how much they've payed)

Has anyone seen a USD price point for this unit, Seems US$2-3K too much from very early evidence in Australia.

Halcyon Symbios is now CE-approved (Instagram). I'm expecting it to be expensive...

@kensuf - my assumption is a a BM twinset is the BO for a Symbios RB. How does a Symbios diver route the LH?

Same as any CM, you can wrap it under the unit or some people stow it in bungees along the plate.

I prefer to wrap under the unit

This appears to be confirmation that it is GUE approved.

Not all the marketing promos with JJ diving it? j/k

wait if the BOV is in the ccr body and not the dsv part. What happens if you flood the loop?

Based solely on the patent filing, the BOV is functionally just turning the upper part of the loop into a double-hose reg, and cuts out the scrubber and counterlung. If the loops was entirely flooded, presumably purging/free-flowing the regulator in BOV mode will clear the inhale hose, and then any water in the exhale hose will be purged by exhaling gas - maybe with some rolling around, similar to in a double-hose reg.

At least in GUE-land, I assume the intention is also to always be diving it with at least a long-hose clipped off, so you can always switch to that and mess with the flooded loop in good time.
